Hey Guys, GREAT SHOW you put on the 4th. You guys rocked the house. I think some of the other bands that went on after you guys had a hard time to follow. Calb was really rock'n on that bandjo I think he did a great job filling in for you guys. I also really liked how you guys added a dobro player nice touch man. Hey if you guys need a T-shirt or Album design, I work part time for a screen printing place in Greensburg just give me call or e-mail me. Well keep Rock'n and hope you guys will make it to Nashville someday.
PEACE jason
